Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of the Company's management, the
accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to
present fairly: (1) its financial position as of August 4, 2001, (2)
the results of its operations for the three and six months ended
August 4, 2001 and July 29, 2000 and (3) its cash flows for the six
month period ended August 4, 2001 and July 29, 2000. The balance sheet
at February 3, 2001 has been derived from financial statements at that
date but does not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
February 3, 2001 filed on May 4, 2001. The interim operating results
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
an entire year.
Note 2 On May 17, 1999, the Company and G+G Retail Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"
or the "Parent") completed a private placement of 107,000 units
consisting in the aggregate of $107.0 million face amount of 11%
Senior Notes ("Senior Notes") due May 15, 2006 with interest payable
semi-annually and warrants to purchase 8,209 shares of non-voting
class D Common Stock of Holdings at an exercise price of $.01 per
share. On November 2, 1999, all of the Senior Notes were exchanged for
an equal amount of exchange notes that are freely tradable.
Note 3 The Company is a party to a Loan and Security Agreement, which expires
in May 2004, and provides for a revolving credit facility
("Facility"), subject to eligible inventory and credit card
receivables, not to exceed $30.0 million, of which $10.0 million can
be used for letters of credit. There were $1.9 million of outstanding
borrowings under the Facility at August 4, 2001. Outstanding letters
of credit under the Facility totaled $641,000 at August 4, 2001.
Interest on outstanding borrowings can range either from Prime to
Prime plus .25% or from 1.50% over the Eurodollar Rate to a maximum
2.25% over the Eurodollar Rate, based on the profitability and amount
of indebtedness of the Company.

Note 4 In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business
Combinations, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under
the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have
indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to
annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statements. Other
intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful
lives.
The Company will apply the new rules on accounting for goodwill and
other intangible assets beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2003.
Application of the nonamortization provisions of the Statement is
expected to result in an increase in net income. During fiscal 2003,
the Company will perform the first of the required impairment tests of
goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets as of February 2, 2002
and has not yet determined what the effect of these tests will be on
the earnings and financial position of the Company.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Overview
We are a leading national mall-based retailer of popular price female junior and
pre-teen apparel. For over 30 years, we and our predecessors have built a
reputation for providing fashion apparel and accessories distinctly targeted at
teenaged women. Our core customers are young women principally between the ages
of 13 to 19 years old. We sell substantially all of our merchandise under
private label names including Rave, Rave Up, In Charge, R4R, Rave City and Rave
Girl, which provide our customers with fashionable, quality apparel and
accessories at lower prices than brand name merchandise. Our emphasis on
sourcing merchandise domestically and our efficient distribution system allow
for short inventory lead times, which facilitates quick response to the latest
fashion trends. As of August 4, 2001, we had 539 operating stores principally
located in major enclosed regional shopping malls throughout the United States,
Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands primarily under the G+G, Rave and Rave
Girl names. Our stores average approximately 2,400 gross square feet with
approximately 25 feet of mall frontage and are designed to create a lively and
exciting shopping experience for teenaged customers.
In July 1999, we started our Rave Girl chain of stores, which sells fashion
apparel and accessories targeted at girls aged 7 to 12 years old. At August 4,
2001, there were 78 Rave Girl stores in operation throughout the United States
and Puerto Rico. Our Rave Girl stores are approximately 2,000 gross square feet
and are designed with bright colors, unique lighting and exciting graphics.
In August 1998, we acquired the business of G&G Shops, Inc. and the stores
operated by subsidiaries of Petrie Retail, Inc. and the trademarks and other
assets used in that business. We obtained financing for the acquisition by a net
capital contribution by G+G Retail Holdings, Inc., our parent company, to us of
$49.8 million and by borrowing $90.0 million under senior bridge notes that we
subsequently repaid with the issuance of our senior notes. We accounted for the
acquisition under the purchase method of accounting.
Results of Operations
Comparison of The Second Quarter of Fiscal 2002 and The Second Quarter of
Fiscal 2001
Net sales increased $12.9 million or 16.8% to $89.5 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 2002 as compared to $76.6 million in the second quarter of
fiscal 2001. The increase in net sales was due to a $2.5 million, or 3.3%,
increase in same store sales compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2001 and
the opening of new stores which contributed $10.4 million to net sales in the
second quarter of fiscal 2002. Average sales per gross square foot increased
6.2% to $69 in the second quarter of fiscal 2002 from $65 in the second quarter
fiscal 2001. We operated 539 stores at the end of the second quarter of fiscal
2002 as compared to 492 stores at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2001,
as a result of opening 65 new stores and closing 18 stores.
8
Cost of sales, including occupancy costs, increased 11.3% to $59.9 million in
the second quarter of fiscal 2002 from $53.8 million in the second quarter of
fiscal 2001. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales including occupancy
costs decreased from 70.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 to 66.9% in the
second quarter of fiscal 2002. This 3.3% decrease resulted from a 3.2% decrease
in cost of merchandise and a 0.1% decrease in occupancy costs. The decrease in
the cost of merchandise as a percentage of net sales was due to an increase in
the initial mark-on and a decrease in markdowns as a percent of sales.
Selling, general, administrative and buying expenses increased 16.7% from $25.1
million in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 to $29.3 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 2002. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses decreased
to 32.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2002 as compared to 32.8% in the second
quarter of fiscal 2001. The $4.2 million increase resulted from additional
selling costs related to new store openings, an increase in same store selling
expenses and an increase in administrative costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2002 was
$3.8 million as compared to $3.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001.
The increase of $500,000 is attributable to the additional depreciation and
amortization expense related to new stores, remodels and relocations.
Interest expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2002 was $3.7 million or 4.1%
of net sales as compared to $3.5 million or 4.6% of net sales for the second
quarter of fiscal 2001. Interest expense for both the second quarter of fiscal
2002 and 2001 reflects interest on the capital lease, short-term borrowings,
senior notes and amortization of the $7.3 million original issue discount, the
$470,000 value assigned to the warrants issued by Holdings, our parent company,
and the deferred financing costs.
The income tax benefit for the second quarter of fiscal 2002 was $3.0 million as
compared to $3.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2001. The income tax
benefit rate was 42.6% in both fiscal quarters.
The net loss decreased from $5.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 to
a loss of $4.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2002 due to the factors
discussed above.
Comparison of The First Six Months of Fiscal 2002 and The First Six Months of
Fiscal 2001
Net sales increased $23.3 million or 15.5% to $174.0 million in the first six
months of fiscal 2002 as compared to $150.7 million in the first six months of
fiscal 2001. The increase in net sales was due to the opening of new stores,
which contributed $19.7 million to net sales in the first six months of fiscal
2002, and a $3.6 million or 2.5% increase in same store sales. Average sales per
gross square foot increased 5.4% to $136 in the first six months of fiscal 2002
from $129 in the first six months of fiscal 2001.
Cost of sales, including occupancy costs, increased 12.1% to $113.6 million in
the first six months of fiscal 2002 from $101.3 million in the first six months
of fiscal 2001. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales including occupancy
costs decreased 1.9% from
9
67.2% in the first six months of fiscal 2001 to 65.3% in the first six months of
fiscal 2002. This 1.9% decrease resulted from a 2.2% decrease in the cost of
merchandise and a 0.3% increase in occupancy costs as a percent of sales. The
decrease in the cost of merchandise as a percentage of net sales was due to an
increase in the initial mark-on and a decrease in markdowns as a percent of
sales. The occupancy cost increase as a percent of sales resulted primarily from
an overall increase in occupancy costs.
In the first six months of fiscal 2002, selling, general, administrative and
buying expenses totaled $57.4 million compared to $49.5 million in the first six
months of fiscal 2001. As a percent of sales, these expenses increased from
32.9% in the first six months of fiscal 2001 to 33.0% in the first six months of
fiscal 2002. The $7.9 million increase resulted from additional selling costs
related to new store openings, an increase in same store selling expenses and an
increase in administrative costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense for the first six months of fiscal 2002
was $7.4 million as compared to $6.3 for the first six months of fiscal 2001.
The increase is attributable to additional depreciation and amortization expense
related to new stores, remodels and relocations.
Interest expense in the first six months of fiscal 2002 was $7.2 million or 4.1%
of net sales as compared to $7.0 million or 4.6% of net sales for the first six
months of fiscal 2001. Interest expense for the first six months of fiscal 2002
and 2001 reflects interest on the capital lease, short-term borrowings, senior
notes and amortization of the $7.3 million original issue discount, the $470,000
value assigned to the warrants issued by Holdings, our parent company, and the
deferred financing costs.
The income tax benefit for the first six months of fiscal 2002 was $4.9 million
as compared to $5.6 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001. The income
tax benefit rate was 42.6% in both six month periods.
The net loss decreased from $7.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2001
to a loss of $6.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2002 due to the
factors discussed above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operating activities and
borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Our primary cash requirements
are for: (i) seasonal working capital, (ii) the construction of new stores,
(iii) the remodeling or upgrading of existing stores as necessary, and (iv)
upgrading and maintaining our computer system.
Our revolving credit facility provides for a line of credit in an amount of up
to $30.0 million (including a sub limit of $10.0 million for letters of credit)
and matures in May 2004. We may use the revolving credit facility for general
operating, working capital and other ordinary corporate purposes. Amounts
available under the revolving credit facility are subject to the value of our
eligible inventory and credit card receivables, subject to certain conditions.
The borrowing base provides for seasonal fluctuations in inventory with peak
borrowing availability during the months of July through November. Interest on
outstanding borrowings can range either from Prime to Prime plus .25% or from
10
1.50% over the Eurodollar Rate to a maximum 2.25% over the Eurodollar Rate,
based on our profitability and amount of indebtedness. The revolving credit
facility subjects us to a minimum net worth covenant (as defined) of $40.0
million and contains other customary restrictive covenants. Our obligations
under the revolving credit facility are secured by a lien on substantially all
of our assets, excluding our leasehold interests. As of August 4, 2001, we had
$1.9 million of borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility and
$641,000 of letters of credit outstanding.
Net cash used in operating activities in the first six months of fiscal 2002 was
$7.5 million as compared to $8.4 million in the first six months of fiscal 2001.
The decrease in net cash used in operating activities was principally due to the
decrease in our loss and the fact that our inventory build in the first half of
fiscal 2002 was less than in the first half of fiscal 2001, which was offset by
our increase in prepaid expenses. August 2001 rents were paid in the second
quarter of fiscal 2002 due to the quarter ending date of August 4th, as opposed
to the prior year when August rents were paid in the third quarter of fiscal
2001.
Capital expenditures for the first six months of fiscal 2002 and the first six
months of fiscal 2001 were $8.3 million and $16.5 million, respectively.
Management estimates that capital expenditures for the remaining six months of
fiscal 2002 will be approximately between $3.0 million and $4.0 million.
We have an agreement from a lending institution for $6.5 million of capital
lease financing for the purchase of the point of sale equipment and software.
The lease provides for monthly payments that depend on the amount of equipment
leased. The lease terms include variable interest rates based on the purchase
date and expire five years from the date of the initial equipment financed. The
capital lease obligation outstanding as of August 4, 2001 was $4.9 million.
We review the operating performance of our stores on an ongoing basis to
determine which stores, if any, to expand or close. We closed nineteen stores in
fiscal 2001, eight stores in the first six months of fiscal 2002 and anticipate
closing approximately ten additional stores during fiscal 2002. We closed nine
stores in the first six months of fiscal 2001.
We historically have maintained negligible accounts receivable balances since
our customers primarily pay for their purchases with cash, checks and
third-party credit cards which are promptly converted to cash.
On May 17, 1999, we and Holdings completed a private placement of an aggregate
of $107.0 million face amount of outstanding notes issued by us and warrants
issued by Holdings to purchase 8,209 shares of its nonvoting Class D Common
Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The net proceeds from this
private placement were $93.9 million, after deducting the original issue
discount of $7.3 million and fees of $5.8 million. We used the net proceeds to
repay the senior bridge notes and for general corporate purposes. On November 2,
1999, our privately placed notes were exchanged for notes that are freely
tradable. As of August 4, 2001, our indebtedness under our senior notes totaled
$101.0 million, which reflects the aggregate face amount of the notes of $107.0
million, net of $5.7 of unamortized original issue discount, and approximately
11
$322,000 of unamortized value assigned to the warrants issued by Holdings. The
interest on the notes is 11% per annum, payable semi-annually.
We have minimum annual rental commitments of approximately $26.0 million in
fiscal 2002 under existing store leases and the leases for our corporate
headquarters and distribution center.
We believe that our cash flow from operating activities, and borrowings
available under the revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our
operating requirements and currently planned capital expenditures through the
end of fiscal 2002. In addition, we believe that cash flow from operations will
be sufficient to cover the interest expense arising from the revolving credit
facility, capital lease and our long-term debt. However, the sufficiency of our
cash flow is affected by numerous factors affecting our operations, including
factors beyond our control. See the statement regarding forward looking
disclosures.
If a "change of control" (as defined in the indenture agreement for our senior
notes) occurs, we will be required under the indenture to offer to repurchase
all the notes. However, we may not have sufficient funds at the time of the
change of control to make the required repurchases, or restrictions in our
revolving credit facility may prohibit the repurchases. We may not be able to
raise enough money to finance the change of control offer required by the
indenture related to the senior notes. If there is a change in control, we could
be in default under the indenture. In addition, upon a change of control (as
defined in the Holdings Certificate of Incorporation), Holdings may not have
sufficient funds to redeem its preferred stock unless we pay a dividend of such
amount to them.
Seasonality and Quarterly Operating Results
Our fourth fiscal quarter historically accounts for the largest percentage of
our annual net sales. Our first fiscal quarter historically accounts for the
smallest percentage of annual net sales. In fiscal 2001, our first quarter and
fourth quarter accounted for approximately 21.2% and 32.5% of annual net sales,
respectively.
Our quarterly results of operations may also fluctuate significantly as a result
of a variety of factors, including the timing of store openings, the amount of
revenue contributed by new stores, changes in the mix of products sold, the
timing and level of markdowns, the timing of store closings and expansions,
competitive factors, weather fluctuations and general economic conditions.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on the results of
operations during the past three fiscal years. However, our business may be
affected by inflation in the future.

Statement Regarding Forward Looking Disclosure
Certain sections of this Report, including the preceding "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,"
contain various forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, which represent our expectations or beliefs concerning future events. We
caution that these statements are further qualified by important factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward
looking statements, including, without limitation, our ability to expand and to
increase comparable store sales, the sufficiency of our working capital and cash
flows from operating activities, a decline in the demand for our merchandise,
our ability to locate and obtain acceptable store sites and lease terms or renew
existing leases, our ability to gauge the fashion tastes of our customers and
provide merchandise that satisfies customer demand, our management's ability to
manage expansion, the effect of economic conditions, the effect of severe
weather or natural disasters and the effect of competitive pressures from other
retailers. For a discussion of these and other factors that could cause results
to differ from the expectations and projections expressed in this report, see
the Forward Looking Statements and Factors Affecting Future Performance section
of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February
3, 2001, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 4, 2001.
